Typical Wooden Jigsaw Puzzle Lovers?

Gave a “Very Happy Birthday Card ” wooden jigsaw puzzle to both the owner and the manager of our favourite coffee shop. These two young women have just had their 40th birthdays. They thought the puzzles were fantastic. One says she is going to hang her puzzle on the wall and no way anyone is going to take it apart and play with it. The other says she is going to put her puzzle in her young daughters hope chest together with a copy of the “Weekender” article. Strange but true. I’ve made quite a few of these ” Very Happy Birthday ” puzzles but to my knowledge only one recipient has ever actually taken it apart so they could reassemble it. Very puzzling for sure.
